New Orleans is the perfect place to replicate that,khalil05http://Comment on New Orleans Hornets say they're making progress on getting a new ownertag:www.nola.com,2015:/hornets/index.ssf//2575.187936042012-01-12T15:07:07Z2012-01-12T15:07:07ZMashburn?

Maybe they should try to avoid home games on that night.knappy2Comment on New Orleans Hornets say they're making progress on getting a new ownertag:www.nola.com,2015:/hornets/index.ssf//2575.187920162012-01-12T13:33:15Z2012-01-12T13:33:15ZI could not agree more......the games are a blast!

That's great news. Chouest still in the hunt plus Mash is interested. It would be good to have either the owner or the ownership group with Hornets connections and NBA connections.lanativehttp://Comment on New Orleans Hornets say they're making progress on getting a new ownertag:www.nola.com,2015:/hornets/index.ssf//2575.187873712012-01-12T01:44:11Z2012-01-12T01:44:11ZThey could sell the team and lot quicker and for more money if they open it up to businessmen who want to move it to Kansas City or Seattle.birdman12http://www.hornets.comComment on New Orleans Hornets say they're making progress on getting a new ownertag:www.nola.com,2015:/hornets/index.ssf//2575.187873142012-01-12T01:39:42Z2012-01-12T01:39:42ZNow this is the news that Hornets fans need to hear!
